Weld features configuration

The first line is used for determining whether or not a snipe relation in a plate contour is to be considered a snipe for the Weld Manager as well. The following three are meant for converting weld methods into Weld features.

  • snipe_threshold
    Snipes with a size larger than the value specified are no longer considered snipes.
  • feature_method_snipe
    Welds with this specific method number are considered to be snipes.
  • feature_method_stopper
    Welds with this specific method number are considered to be weld stoppers.
  • feature_method_clearance
    Welds with this specific method number are considered to be clearances.
  • split_threshold
    Specifies the minimum required length for a weld line to be a separate weld line after weld line splitting.

The numerical representation of weld methods can be found in the System Management application under Construction > Welds/Bevels > Weld Codes > Welding Codes, Second Part, see Weld Codes.
